We stayed here for 4 nights in mid-July. Price is an average over our stay. This CG had been on my list for awhile and I was super happy to be able to reserve site 50. It was long enough and flat enough coming in from the road to back in ok. Some of the sites on the roads higher up have steep inclines or declines getting in from the roads. There were a lot of scrape marks on the wood platforms from vehicles backing in or leaving. The sites are all out over the hillsides on wood platforms with massive concrete pilings. The drive into the park / CG is extremely steep as are the roads in the campground. We were a bit concerned driving out with the steep road we had to get up to get to the dump station too - all good though.
The pros: beautiful, cool sites, nice check in (we checked in early), book trade in check in, frog noise at night, pretty lake, fun tower at the vis center to climb. Great exercise walking the dog on the campground roads.
The cons: watch for ticks on the trails. Started one trail and yikes. So kept the dog walking to the campground roads. Which was a con as well - my calves hurt by the end of our stay from going up and down so many hills!

I had seen this on Campendium when looking for places to stop for a break on our way home. We originally had site 45 but asked to move as it looked too difficult to get into with our long truck and trailer. Many of the sites are either a ramp up or a ramp down to park and the roads slope and are super narrow in places. We switched to 57 on the lake side overlooking the marina. With such a narrow road, it made backing in slightly challenging. We were on a one lane road with 2 way traffic and 2 roads above us had to exit on our road. Most platforms are 24 x 30. A few longer ones. Do check it out carefully before picking a site if you have a hard time backing or a longer rig. It is unique parking on a wooden platform over a steep hillside. Lots of trees for shade. Plenty of boating access but no beach. WiFi was spotty same with cell phone. Consumer Cellular. We did not use their bathroom as it was a ways from our site. Dump station was fine and easy access on our way out. No good place for lining up except in the road. Luckily no one was there when we went. It is a beautiful spot. Trails need maintenance. Laundromat was handy and reasonable. Used it while waiting for our spot as we arrived early. 25 percent off for seniors.

We had a great stay @ EESP. We originally booked it because of the elevated decks that serve as camp sites. Every spot on the water had a great view in my opinion. There is a lot of tree coverage to keep you cool in the summer. Lots of things to see and do in and out of the park, IF, you're into fishing, swimming, kayaking etc. Other than that, it's pretty remote. i was disappointed in the cell coverage by Verizon, but that doesn't reflect on the park itself. I do however, wish they could strengthen their wifi signal at the waterfront sites. I know it's camping but i work remotely and need to keep in touch with the outside world when we travel. I do recommend a stay at EESP if you're looking to get back to nature!

Being able to park on the decking was nice. The fire ring area, however, is not a great set-up on most sites; people end up sitting in the road to have enough room. Site 34's was good though. The turtles at the marina were fun, but the Marina Trail hike there was not. The lake is beautiful and the lookout at the visitors center was awesome. Hot tip: make sure you put in the correct address into your GPS to get there so you don't end up on mostly unpaved, one-way roads on the other side of the lake.

Edgar Evins State Park is a unique experience - I've never see platforms that make up your entire site! The park was incredibly well-maintained, and almost every site has some view of the lake. Be warned - the grade of the roads and how tight it is to get in most spots would make this difficult for a lot of trailers. My 20' GeoPro fit, but I couldn't imagine successfully backing up something any larger in most of the spaces; there are some that accommodate 5th wheels, but make sure to check every photo before booking your site. One of the best features - strong Wifi! They have extenders/repeaters absolutely everywhere through the park - even the marina! Easy to connect and stay connected. Will definitely be coming back to this state park.

We loved it here!!! Great showers too. Ed got a site on the water, very spacious and quiet! I’ve always wanted to camp on a platform over the water and that’s r what this is. We had no issues getting spur of the moment reservations even in June. Highly recommend!

Very unique deck campsites. Makes for a more spaced quiet experience. Very quiet except for occasional dog or kid. Not much space for a campfire. Beautiful lake. Nice hiking trails. Didn’t see any large rigs, just travel trailers and tents. Bath houses were clean. Rebuilding sidewalks to bath houses. We enjoyed our stay and would return.
